Shift 2: Valentine's Dinner at Van Buren ShelterSpread Love at Van Buren Shelter Date: February 13 | Time: 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm Venue: Van Buren Shelter
Address:
Directions: Details: This Valentine's Day, Besa and community partners are teaming to share love -- and spread kindness -- Columbus style. Together, we'll uplift several hundred homeless families with a Valentine's Day experience that includes a delicious meal cooked from scratch, roses for the women and children, family portraits, live music, crafts and more.
For this shift, volunteers will work side-by-side with the YMCA staff to provide a special Valentine's Day dinner to the families staying at the shelter and engage them in activities. This includes: serving meals, scooping Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream, passing out roses, escorting families to take portraits, crafts, clean-up and more.
Van Buren Shelter could use the following donations to support the men, women, and families during their stay. If you’d like to donate any of these items, please bring them with you when you volunteer and notify your Besa Volunteer Leader.
